WC-Ni Thermal Spray Powder for Hard, Dense Coatings
Tungsten Carbide Nickel powders combine the extreme hardness of tungsten carbide with the corrosion resistance and toughness of a nickel matrix. The [-270+400] mesh designation indicates a tightly controlled particle size range, which is crucial for achieving uniform melting and a smooth, dense coating microstructure. This powder is a standard choice for components subjected to severe abrasive wear, fretting, and particle erosion.
Process Compatibility and Application Suitability
This powder grade is compatible with HVOF, plasma, and flame spray systems. The specific process fit depends on your equipment and coating requirements. HVOF spraying typically yields the densest, most well-bonded coatings with the lowest porosity, making it ideal for aerospace and oil & gas components. Plasma spraying offers versatility for larger parts, while flame spraying can be a cost-effective solution for less critical applications. We recommend discussing your process parameters with our team to confirm the best match.
Packaging and Handling
To maintain powder integrity and prevent contamination, this product is available in sealed industrial packs. Standard options include 5 kg tins, 10 kg tins, and 25 kg pails. Proper storage in a cool, dry environment is essential to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect flowability and spray performance.
